[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

For Nora and Aron it is love at first sight when they encoun­ter each other on a rai­ny day whilst taking the under­ground. It was a com­ple­te coin­ci­dence, Nora says. Aron dis­agrees: it was pre­de­ter­mi­ned. But the young cou­ple then get caught up in a vio­lent bank rob­be­ry. Aron is shot by the mas­ked gun­man and dies in Nora’s arms. For Nora, time stands still. She numbs her pain, spen­ding the night with a stran­ger – Natan. He pro­vi­des Nora with sta­bi­li­ty. She has the stran­ge fee­ling that she knows him alre­a­dy, but does not yet know what real­ly con­nects them…

Ein Film von Nils Olger. .

[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

Von sei­ner Großmutter erhält Nils Olger nach dem Tod des Großvaters eine Kassette. In ihr lie­gen Rollen mit Fotonegativen. »Da hast du nun alle unse­re Geheimnisse«, sagt sie. Die Bilder las­sen ahnen, wor­an der Großvater als SS-Angehöriger im zwei­ten Weltkrieg betei­ligt war. Olger folgt der Spur der Negative und begibt sich an ihre Entstehungsorte. Nach Österreich, Ungarn und Italien. Es ist der Versuch des Nachgeborenen, sei­ne Erinnerungen an den Großvater um die von ihm ver­schwie­ge­nen Elemente zu ergän­zen und mit­hil­fe der Negative ein voll­stän­di­ge­res Bild ent­ste­hen zu lassen.

A Film by Sally Potter fol­lo­wed by a Performance CONFESSIONS OF AN ACTRESS by Susanne Sachsse. On October 23rd at the fsk. In English.

The ground-brea­king first fea­ture from the direc­tor of ORLANDO and THE TANGO LESSON, THE GOLD DIGGERS is a key film of ear­ly Eighties femi­nist cine­ma. Made with an all-woman crew, fea­turing stun­ning pho­to­gra­phy by Babette Magolte and a score by Lindsay Cooper it embraces a radi­cal and expe­ri­men­tal nar­ra­ti­ve struc­tu­re. Celeste (Colette Laffont) is a com­pu­ter clerk in a bank who beco­mes fasci­na­ted by the rela­ti­onship bet­ween gold and power. Ruby (Julie Christie) is an enig­ma­tic film star in quest of her child­hood, her memo­ries and the truth about her own iden­ti­ty. As their paths cross they come to sen­se that the­re could be a link bet­ween the male strugg­le for eco­no­mic supre­ma­cy and the fema­le ide­al of mys­te­rious but impo­tent beauty.

A film by Seamus Murphy. In English with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

A child curious­ly pres­ses its face against the win­dow of a car in which British musi­ci­an PJ Harvey and pho­to­jour­na­list and film­ma­ker Seamus Murphy are sit­ting. They are in Kabul, Afghanistan, one of three desti­na­ti­ons to which they are tra­vel­ling; the others are Kosovo and Washington, D.C. Harvey is sear­ching for inspi­ra­ti­on; coll­ec­ting impres­si­ons and words, obser­ving, lis­tening and absor­bing. Her thoughts can be heard in voice-over. Hers is the chro­nic­le of a stran­ger who­se atten­ti­ve gaze is direc­ted towards the rea­li­ty of ever­y­day life in the places she visits. Inspiration turns into poet­ry, which gives rise to songs for her album ‘The Hope Six Demolition Project’. Back in London, Harvey records the­se songs with her band in a pur­po­se-built stu­dio which ser­ves as a kind of peep­show, its one-way win­dow allo­wing inte­res­ted audi­en­ces to obser­ve the process.
Seamus Murphy trans­po­ses Harvey’s search for inspi­ra­tio­nal mate­ri­al and her inti­ma­te crea­ti­ve pro­cess into an impres­si­ve­ly poe­tic mon­ta­ge that never once dive­sts the musi­ci­an of her enig­ma­tic aura. A Dog Called Money mer­ges the filmmaker’s and the musician’s visi­ons in an extra­or­di­na­ry symbiosis.

[Credits] [Stream] [Trailer]

‘Tell them you’re 24’, advi­ses Petrunya’s mother as her daugh­ter heads off to ano­ther inter­view. But Petrunya is 31; moreo­ver, she has stu­di­ed histo­ry, a sub­ject that no one in Macedonia seems to need. So the­re she sits in front of her poten­ti­al employ­er, a fac­to­ry owner, who looks down on her flo­ral dress and refu­ses to take her serious­ly. On her way home – natu­ral­ly, she did not get the job – Petrunya deci­des to take the plun­ge. It is Epiphany and, like every year, the young men of the city are diving for the holy cross that the priest has thrown into the icy river. This time, Petrunya is quicker than ever­yo­ne else and ends up hol­ding the tro­phy aloft for the TV came­ras. For one who­le day and one night, she will defend the cross, accom­pa­nied by much public com­mo­ti­on and against the clo­sed ranks of the male world.
Teona Strugar Mitevska deli­vers an angry yet melan­cho­lic sati­re that ques­ti­ons the sta­tus of demo­cra­tic chan­ge in Macedonian socie­ty and pas­ses scathing jud­ge­ment on repre­sen­ta­ti­ves of the church, the judi­cia­ry and the media. The film’s sym­pa­thies are all with the deter­mi­ned woman who asserts hers­elf against archaic tra­di­ti­ons and para­ly­zing opportunism.

It’s Lara’s 60th bir­th­day, and she has every reason to cele­bra­te: this evening, her son Viktor will be giving the most important pia­no con­cert of his care­er. Lara was, after all, the one who’d map­ped out and dri­ven his musi­cal care­er. Yet Viktor has been unre­acha­ble for weeks and not­hing indi­ca­tes that Lara will be wel­co­me at his debut per­for­mance. Without fur­ther ado, she buys up all the remai­ning tickets and hands them out to ever­yo­ne she meets. The more Lara stri­ves to make the evening suc­cessful, howe­ver, the more events get out of control.

‘Barstow, California’ is the third film in the tri­lo­gy ‘The American West’ (the other two films are: ‘Nome Road System’ and ‘Milltown, Montana’) about places in the rela­tively spar­se­ly popu­la­ted are­as of the American West. It is an artis­tic docu­men­ta­ry recor­ding life & land­scape in the California sou­thwes­tern desert. The trilogy’s style of ‘land­scape lis­tening’ (ambi­ent audio only) will be alte­red some­what with Barstow to add the voice of Stanley ‘Spoon’ Jackson (an inter­na­tio­nal­ly-acclai­med, Barstow-born prisoner/poet) to the sound­track rea­ding pas­sa­ges from his auto­bio­gra­phy deal­ing with his youth & life in the area.
